letters

Yesterday I received a lovely letter from Ebony. The beautiful hand made envelope and cut out shapes reminded me of my letter-writing days in Primary school.
I have kept all my letters and cards in shoe boxes, pushed to the back of cupboards. Some are more than 25years old.(...wowzers?!). Here are some oldies and newies(?) I am sorting through:






Little mini notes, open/close flaps, pop ups, art works, little presents all bundled up in a letter. There is something so special about opening these precious handmade gifts...I should get writing again.

p.s. Thanks Ebony, Emma, Miwa, Kao-chan, Junko chan, Simon for all your letters.

  1. Wow those are all so beautiful! I love the ones just under mine. They are adorable!!! How the tape has discoloured is really beautiful. And that red heart with tinsel is great, too! xoxo
    P.S. Kind of embarrassing too that my one looks like a kid made it!

  4. This collection is wonderful. I have also saved many old letters but they are so deep in my cupboards or in cardboard boxes in the attic that I have to take time to find them. Thanks for sharing and you have a great starting point...how you do your things.
